6 reasons why you should consider self-hosted feature management [2023]

Egil Østhus discusses the advantages of self-hosted feature management with Unleash, emphasizing flexibility, security, privacy, GDPR compliance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness as key reasons to consider this option over cloud-based solutions. Self-hosted systems allow organizations to maintain complete control over their data and infrastructure, reducing the risks associated with multi-tenant environments and external access to sensitive information. Unleash's architecture supports this approach with its API-first strategy and event-driven model, enabling seamless integration into unique workflows. However, self-hosting requires teams to manage their deployments, including service stability and security, which may not be ideal for businesses that prefer to focus on their core products and outsource non-strategic tasks.
